History of Cannon Fodder Struggle [Qing]

Zhu Yan knelt on the tatami, drinking tea with Li Wei who was opposite, discussing what to do next.

It has been more than a month since the two of them came to Edo. In the first half of the month, they received Japanese nobles every day. They knew that there were fewer people in these two days, so they had this period of rest.

Most of the houses in the country of Wa are the style of the Tang Dynasty. Staying here always feels like traveling through time and space.

However, the people of the Wa country are generally short, so the proportion of houses built is also reduced, which cannot be compared with the Huanghuang Tang Dynasty after all.

There is a sakura planted in the yard. It is already past the cherry blossom viewing season, and there are only a few cherry blossoms left on the branches.

A gust of wind blew over and took away a cherry blossom on the branch.

Zhu Yan withdrew his eyes and looked at Li Wei, "Are you going to agree to the Japanese proposal?"

This time Zhu Yan and Li Wei came here to solve the murder case of the Tokugawa family.

If the Tokugawa family wanted to protect their family, they would naturally have to pay a price.

But the Qing side disagreed, and the only purpose was to make the murderer pay for his life.

The two came here to negotiate this matter, and to buy time for the Qing Dynasty.

Now things are stuck here, and the Tokugawa family intends to compensate a group of people to the Qing Dynasty for atonement.

Not to mention that there is a shortage of people everywhere in the Qing Dynasty, the factories that have been opened are like monsters, swallowing people one by one, and they will not refuse anyone.Even some landlords had to back off a little to be able to tie their tenants to the land.

For big landlords, this damages their interests, and many people have tried their best to get through the government to crack down on this phenomenon of factories and land grabbing people.

But whoever is capable of running a factory is easy to mess with nowadays. Landlords have connections in the government, but don’t factory owners have one?

Nowadays, the Qing Dynasty can be said to be an era when commodities are scarce. No matter what is produced, there is no need to worry about selling it. Even if it cannot be sold locally, it can be sold overseas.

This makes the factories open more and more, presenting a state of blooming everywhere.

The more factories open, the more people will be recruited. I heard that some factories treat workers as human beings. The cabinet has already negotiated a law to protect workers. It has secretly checked the situation in the factory, and the law will appear next year.

This caused some factory owners to turn their attention to outside the Qing Dynasty. Compared with the Qing Dynasty who had no slaves and could not beat or scold workers, many foreign countries still retained the slave system.

For example, in North Korea, the factories in the three northeastern provinces have recruited many workers from North Korea, and these people work very hard. As long as they eat and drink, and only pay a small salary, they can work honestly.

After all, compared with working in the Qing Dynasty, living a life without clothing and food in North Korea can be described as a day and a day.

On the border between North Korea and the Qing Dynasty, many people abandoned their land and smuggled to the Qing Dynasty. It has formed a certain scale. The soldiers on the border of North Korea sometimes turn a blind eye. It is really hard for the people in North Korea. Well, the hungry are almost like ribs, it's better to let these people enter the border of the Qing Dynasty, at least they can have a chance of survival.

There are some people who are waiting to pick people at the border.

Nowadays, people don’t trade human beings anymore, but instead become intermediaries, introducing certain people to the factory and getting a commission.

Compared with the black-hearted business of human trafficking, introducing workers to factories, Ren Yazi is more willing to accept this kind of transformation.

Some people are even more far-sighted, setting their sights on the surrounding small countries, and forming an organization with a clear division of labor to bring people to the Qing Dynasty on the grounds of introducing work.

This is one of them.

Japan is a country with frequent natural disasters, and earthquakes are commonplace.

Therefore, the whole country encourages the population to have children. After all, when an earthquake and tsunami come, the dead will die in batches.

Yazi, a man from the Qing Dynasty, introduced Japanese civilians to work in the Qing Dynasty. Not only can they fill their stomachs, but they don’t have to worry about their own personal safety. For these oppressed civilians, it is simply a dream.

Many civilians even followed the people on the boat with their families beaming with joy.

The population has been lost, which naturally attracted the attention of the upper nobles.

After all, the people at the bottom have run away, no one is farming, and no one is here to serve the nobles like them.The Wa country even issued a policy that would not allow the common people to go to sea easily, and even if one person ran away, he would spread his anger to the whole village.

The population business here in the country of Wa has been blocked by the government. Naturally, some factories are short of high-quality and cheap workers, and the income of Renyazi is also reduced. These people can't wait to pretend to be pirates and go to the coastal villages of the country of Wa Rob people.

The country of Wa is surrounded by the sea, and it cannot be protected even if it wants to.

The merchants in the Qing Dynasty were very courageous, and it was very easy to do this kind of no-cost business. Anyway, it was just a matter of docking a ship.

In some coastal villages, even after seeing the Qing Dynasty ships docking, the whole village was happy.

If you do too much, you will inevitably have friction with the Japanese army.

After more friction, the incident escalated, and that's when the Tokugawa family killed the Qing businessman.

In addition, the dead Qing merchant family has a certain influence in the local area, and they will insist on killing the little Wa country by themselves.

After the news spread to the capital, the imperial court reacted quickly and directly sent a special mission to the country of Wa to hand over the murderer.

In fact, there were traces of the imperial court here, but I don't know if an agreement was reached with the merchant family, but for the person who died, it was considered worthwhile to die.

After all, for him, the Qing Dynasty is going to fight with the Wa Kingdom, and it may not be impossible to leave a name in history in the future.

Wa Guo opened his mouth to give away this time, because he lowered his identity and wanted to cover up the matter as soon as possible.

Li Wei planned to eat the man and throw the cannonball back.

"If the Wa country is willing to send a group of people to work in the Qing Dynasty, I will naturally welcome it, but this is different from Tokugawa Shinnosuke's matter, and the two have nothing to do with each other."

Tokugawa Shinnosuke was the one who killed the Qing businessman by mistake.

This one has a high status in the Tokugawa family, and is even one of the heirs of the Tokugawa General.

It is precisely because the status is too high that the Tokugawa family will keep people no matter what they say.

Li Wei belongs to the official staff of the imperial court, and Zhu Yan is the military advisor who follows him, and the two cooperate with each other tacitly. Fourth master's appreciation.

And Zhu Yan is an intelligent talent, has a big picture, and belongs to the kind of person who can help Li Wei fill in some loopholes by taking one step at a time and seeing three steps.

After a period of running-in, the two knew who the other was.

Although Li Wei didn't know many words, he was smart, and he was able to make friends from all levels of education. It can be said that there is no friend in this world that he can't make.

With Zhu Yan's intentional or unintentional cooperation, the relationship between the two has improved over time.

Li Wei learned that Zhu Yan was not in good health, so he often took him to the hot springs.

Probably the hot springs here in the Wa Kingdom do have miraculous effects. Since Zhu Yan came here, his daily coughs have decreased a lot.

"I think Waguo has made up his mind and wants to keep this Tokugawa Shinnosuke, but I don't know what is so special about this person's identity and why the Tokugawa family bothered so much." Zhu Yan poured a cup of tea for Li Wei, After putting down the teapot, he took a sip of the tea in front of him and asked.

During this period of time, Li Wei not only dealt with people from the Wa Kingdom, but also walked around Edo for a while.

In addition, the trade between the Qing Dynasty and Japan is increasing day by day, not to mention Edo, you can find merchants from the Qing Dynasty in any prosperous city.

This is because these businessmen, after making some friendships, have figured out the affairs of the Tokugawa family.

"The generals of the Tokugawa family have changed frequently in recent generations. Today's general Tokugawa Ienobu is just a child less than five years old, a puppet pushed onto the table. The following successors are fighting fiercely. Tokugawa Shinnosuke Belonging to the fourth son of Tokugawa Mitsusada, the lord of the Kii clan, many Tokugawa generals have always come from Kii Tokugawa. This one has a greater chance of winning. Think about how the future Tokugawa generals can be handed over to the Qing Dynasty. The fate of an ordinary businessman?" Li Wei told what he knew.

Zhu Yan frowned as he listened, but he didn't expect the Tokugawa family to fight quite fiercely.

Then, as if thinking of something, he frowned, "In this case, why don't we go along with the flow and help Tokugawa Shinno."

If the future general really falls on Tokugawa Shinnosuke, then if Tokugawa Shinnosuke is controlled, wouldn't it be to control the entire Wa Kingdom?

Although the current emperor has been passed down for thousands of years, he is only a puppet for thousands of years.

In fact, the entire Wa country is in the hands of various shoguns. A few years ago, it was Toyotomi Hideyoshi, followed by Tokugawa Ieyasu. After all, the Tokugawa family is now the master behind the scenes of the Wa country.

If you really master Tokugawa Shinnosuke and send him to the position of general, then you can really control the entire Wa country by his hands.

I just had to find a way to control Tokugawa Shinnosuke so that he had to obey the Qing Dynasty.

After hearing what he said, Li Wei stared at him with wide eyes.

Zhu Yan tapped his fingers on the table and pondered for a while.

Li Wei knew that Zhu Yan had the habit of knocking on the table when he was thinking, so he didn't interrupt him and just waited patiently.

After sorting out his thoughts, Zhu Yan raised his head and said to Li Wei, "I have already thought of a solution, but the implementation still requires the cooperation of the higher authorities, so I will write a letter and submit it. If the higher authorities agree with our method, we will act again."

After Li Wei heard what the idea was, his eyes lit up, "Sure enough, you are a person who has read the book, and the conspiracies and tricks in your mind come out one after another, so I will listen to you. After writing the letter, I will pass it on for you! "

Unfortunately, Zhu Yan didn't like his compliment.

Prince Zhi visited the temporary camp set up by the water in Tongzhou, where there were recruits just recruited from the people.

Most of them are familiar with water, and the formation of a navy naturally requires people who are familiar with water to recruit.

Not to mention that the salary of the newly built navy is very good. They are allowed to retire in three years, and they also cover the future jobs of veterans.

These two points alone can attract many young people to join the army.

Today's young people are unwilling to stay in the factory. The boring life in the factory does not attract these young people. Generally, after working for a few years, they will leave the factory after earning some money and find a job for themselves.

Of course, when there is no more money, maybe I will return to the factory.

But these young men in front of them are different. They have all worked on ships and are familiar with the usage of new-style ships.

Even... familiar with firearms.

Prince Zhi had already noticed something wrong with this, how could this be a recruit?

It's more like a soldier of the Eight Banners, and has the posture of being a soldier.

Some of the people he valued were even infected with murderous aura. Prince Zhi had led troops and killed enemies, so he naturally knew that those who were infected with this murderous aura had killed people with their own hands.

Prince Zhi wondered in his heart, is there still a group of people under the fourth brother who specially trained in the dark, and this time he used his hands to turn these people from the dark to the bright.

Prince Zhi had doubts in his heart, so he became vigilant.

Strictly inspect these recruits more seriously, and when he finds that the training methods of these recruits are self-contained, Prince Zhi is even more sure of the guess in his heart.

What made him even more delighted to see Lie Xin was that these training methods were far superior to the existing military training methods of the Qing Dynasty.

Generally speaking, there are regulations, and even the quilt toothbrush has a fixed way of folding and placing.

According to the training instructor who was transferred, starting from these details can cultivate the obedience of the soldiers and the unity of the entire army, so that the entire army can do what it says.

Even some naughty soldiers selected from the Eight Banners, after being integrated into the whole, after more than a month of polishing, both their spirit and appearance have been greatly improved.

Prince Zhi felt that this was the army in his mind. If the entire Eight Banners were restructured in this way, then all rebellions would definitely be wiped out.

Prince Zhi mistakenly thought that these people were private soldiers in the hands of the fourth master, but the fourth master did not take the navy army seriously. In his opinion, the navy army would not be able to form a certain scale within ten years.

As long as there are [-] sailors with a gun in hand, they will definitely be able to wipe out the Japanese kingdom.

Therefore, fourth master didn't pay much attention to the navy, and after handing it over to the eldest brother, he didn't care too much.

This gave Minning a chance to take advantage of the loopholes. These recruits and instructors who performed well in training were all arranged by her.

These people are the mainstay of the future navy. They came in at the beginning of the establishment of the navy, and they will definitely be able to rise up. Coupled with Minning's presence, it can be guaranteed that the future navy will not be able to escape her hand.

She also wants to build three major water armies. In the future, wherever there are ships of the Qing Dynasty, there will be the shadow of the Qing Dynasty Navy. She will never hand over the ocean to others.

Today, as usual, the newly recruited soldiers follow the training of the recruits. The reason why they choose to train in Tongzhou is because there are still some recruits who do not know how to swim and can only train in some places first.

Wait until you learn how to swim and hold your breath before switching to the beach.

The place closest to the sea from the capital is Tianjin, and the expenses there are much more expensive than Tongzhou, so, ahem, in order to save some military expenses, I changed to station in Tongzhou for a period of time to form land and swimming training .

In addition to the high consumption in Tianjin, there is another point, that is, the warships prepared for the navy have not yet been built.

For the navy, military ships belong to their tents. Without military ships, it is useless to go to the seaside.

It's better to run in the whole recruit team first in Tongzhou.

Although it is said that the newly established navy is under the control of Prince Zhi, Prince Zhi knows that he is in charge of it in name.

The army has formed its own system and is divided into several levels. There are also some civil servants. Although these civilians do not participate in combat, they are also divided into several levels just like officers. Knows well.

Prince Zhi really knows how powerful these civil servants are, and being with them can ensure that the entire army will not be out of control, and he will not be afraid to muddle along with his superiors to rebel.

Moreover, the civilian system in the army does not belong to the military officer at all, so there is no fear that the military officer will intervene in civilian work for the people who install him.

If this system is extended to the entire Qing Dynasty, all the troops will only recognize the emperor, and no longer recognize who is the general and who is the marshal.

In other words, as long as there are these people, even if the top leader is transferred away, it will not affect the combat capability of the entire army.

This is the general of the iron-clad army.

Prince Zhi was a little amazed, and he didn't know which man designed this military system. If the fourth child was really determined to promote this system to the entire Qing army, then he would no longer be afraid of the military officer's rebellion.

After finishing today's work, Prince Zhi returned to the barracks, sat down and wrote down what he saw and heard every day.

The construction of a navy was not only the first attempt of the Qing Dynasty, but also the first attempt of the entire Central Plains dynasties. The only reference is Zheng He of the previous dynasty.

During Zheng He's three voyages to the West, he brought troops to subdue many countries, and these countries even came to surrender with tribute.

It is a pity that people in the Ming Dynasty could not see the huge wealth brought by the maritime trade. After Zheng He died, they burned the treasure ships and never mentioned the voyages to the West.

Prince Zhi is a little proud, but he is still superior, knowing that overseas trade can bring huge wealth.No, because the wealth was too great, the Qing Dynasty had to build a navy to escort the wealth back to Middle-earth.

It is always a joy to have a strong country.

Then again, the Qing Dynasty was won on horseback, and it can be said that it is very strange to the Jianshui Army.

Fortunately, the fourth child has already made arrangements and arranged for someone to help with training.

Prince Zhi's task today is only to record these training methods and the daily progress of the soldiers, so as to serve as a reference for the promotion of the Eight Banners soldiers in the future.

Originally, these things were unexpected to Prince Zhi, and the instructor who trained the recruits asked him to do this.

Prince Zhi thought about it for a while, and he would definitely not be in charge of the navy in the future, but the fourth child told him before that when the time came, he would send him to America with a part of the navy.

Then he will definitely be in charge of the soldiers at that time, and even recruit some soldiers on the American continent, so he should really record how to train soldiers.

This is the daily record task.

This note later became a precious data record at the beginning of the establishment of the Navy and is treasured in the National Museum.

Time passed in a blink of an eye, and autumn came, and the earth was dyed golden.

In recent years, due to the endless emergence of various agricultural tools and bank loans, rich people have bought a few harvesting and peeling tools in order to grab grain.

There are also some villages that borrow several kinds of farm tools with the land of the whole village as collateral, and only repay one hundred catties of grain every year, and the whole village shares one share, which is not much for each family.

This has enabled some villages to harvest grain much faster, freeing up more space to work in factories.

It can be said that the days after the autumn harvest are the happiest days for the factory.

During this period of time, a large number of people have been liberated from the heavy farmland. At least before the Chinese New Year, these people will stay in the factory with peace of mind and create more products for the factory.

The whole south is immersed in the joy of harvest, but there are only a few places occasionally, because of the perennial drought and lack of water, there is no harvest.

One of the county towns is located in the hinterland of Guanzhong, and there are no big rivers around it, only a few small roads. Whenever water is in short supply in summer, the flow of water in the upper reaches is cut off early.

This makes it impossible to plant paddy fields in this place, and it can be said that most of the land is dry fields.

There is not much food production, which makes this county very barren. Fortunately, the local parent official is a clean official. He only has several patches on his official uniform. Thinking about helping people get rid of poverty.

Although this parent official has a good reputation in the local area, it is a pity that he is not outstanding. Even if he is an honest official, there is only one honest official with mediocre qualifications left.

Last time, I suddenly received a letter from my classmate and friend. The other party talked about the cement factory and said that they planned to write to the Supreme Emperor together, so that the Supreme Emperor would pressure the Emperor to allow them to find their own way of making money.Ask him if he plans to write a letter together.

The parent official originally didn't want to get involved in this matter. Although he hadn't figured out the temper of the new emperor yet, but he could kick the current crown prince away, squeeze out the prestigious Eighth Master, and make the Supreme Emperor willingly abdicate. An annoying character.

Although the parent official is the head of a county, he is only an official the size of a sesame seed to the superior emperor. How can he dare to participate in this matter and let the emperor put pressure on the emperor?

But looking at the people in the county town in ragged underwear and the beggars with numb eyes, the parents feel sad.

He is useless, if he has the ability, he can also learn from those government officials who run cement factories, and drive the people in the entire county to become rich.

It was these people who made their parents grit their teeth and wrote a letter agreeing to what their classmates and friends said.

After the letter passed, he became anxious and waited every day.

Can anyone persecute the emperor?

As the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, how can he be coerced by his subjects?

The parent official thought that he would not be able to keep Dingdai Hualing, but if he could really exchange Dingdai Hualing for the common people to survive, he would be willing.

This day, a group of people entered the dilapidated city gate.

Looking at the lack of vitality in the entire county, and looking at a part of the city wall that has collapsed due to dry cracks, one of the people in this group, who looked younger, raised the rein and said, "I checked it before, It's relatively poor here, I didn't expect it to be so poor." After looking at the street, they didn't see many people when they came in.

The young man looked at the people next to him again, "By the way, how many families are there in this county?"

"Three hundred households."

The young man nodded, and said happily, "At any rate, it's much better than Jackie Chan Yu when he first became an official."

Then, looking at the small county town, he said with confidence, "This time, we must beat Team A. Give me three years, and the population of this county town will increase to [-] households, and the people will be able to fill their stomachs."

The people around him nodded, and then said, "Okay, Wang Meng, first go to the county government, and after you find the county magistrate, hurry up and hand over to him."

Wang Meng said "Hey", waved his hand, and the whole team continued to move forward.

The county government office is quite easy to find. After entering from the city gate, walk straight along this road without making a turn. The county government office is at the end of the walk.

A group of people dismounted and found that the county government office in front of them was as broken as the city wall. Fortunately, there was a big drum outside the county government gate, and there were quite a few government servants guarding the gate. Otherwise, the group of people really wondered if they had found the wrong place?

"Who is this person?" Compared with the group of people in front of him, this county government servant is also very thin. Although his eyes are wide open and he pretends to be fierce, just looking at his hungry and weak appearance, Even the tone of voice is a little erratic.

Wang Meng is the leader of the team this time, since he stepped forward, "I am the new local county magistrate, please call out your county magistrate Hu, this is my appointment order!"

Wang Meng took the appointment order from the side, unfolded it and showed it to the yamen servant.

This yamen servant is not literate, but he has seen this transfer order before, but it was taken out when magistrate Hu was transferred nine years ago.

Originally thought that County Magistrate Hu would find connections and transfer away like the previous county magistrates, but he didn't expect to stay there like a stubborn donkey. He stayed there for nine years without moving his nest.

The yamen servant suddenly turned around and ran towards the county yamen, shouting as he ran, "My lord, my lord, there is a new lord outside!"

Wang Meng froze for a moment, looked at the people around him, then touched his nose and said, "Am I that scary?"

Wang Meng grew up in an orphanage since he was a child. Like other well-educated people, he was continued to be supported by the orphanage and passed the Jinshi examination.

After passing the Jinshi exam, I didn't take the exam again, but chose to fill in the vacancy.

For orphans like them who come out of the orphanage, a competition is needed to fill the vacancies. The competition is to choose a barren county, and during this period of time, some resources will be allocated to the county, which can be used to develop the county.

After the three-year term is over, the evaluation will be based on the county's population, prosperity, tax payment, and the rating of the people.

The winner can get the support from above to be promoted to a new position. It can be said that as long as they have the ability, they don't need to consider some complicated matters in the officialdom. If they do their jobs well, they can be promoted.

As long as you have the ability, you can be promoted to the cabinet.

The loser will continue to stay in office until the county is developed to a certain extent.

It can be said that these orphans started to compete when they were young, weeded out some with poor qualifications, and then weeded out some with unstable minds, and finally the elites remained.

Now that they have chosen to be an official, every elite wants to be a high-ranking official, but these all require competition.

Starting from the lowest rank of official, although it was nothing if he failed, he wasted three years and distanced himself from others.

In a person's lifetime, how many three years can be wasted in being an official?

Perhaps when he competed at the same starting point and failed one after another, he might have to work hard to get transferred to the capital when someone else entered the cabinet.

This is the gap.

Although Wang Meng is a delicate reader, he doesn't think he is proficient in everything, so he invited several friends over this time. Some of them are good at business, some are good at planting, some are good at river engineering, and some are good at prospecting.

In short, bring everything you can bring.

No matter what, he will make this county prosperous, win this competition, and win the initial political capital.

He lost at the beginning, how to let the upper management tilt resources to train him.

Every year, there are newcomers waiting to fill the vacancies. In other words, the competition for these resources will become more and more fierce in the future. If you don't have a good resume, how can you attract the above people?

Hearing the shouts from outside, County Magistrate Hu put down the bald brush in his hand and stood up.

The yamen servant had already broken into the study, and seeing the magistrate Hu shouting loudly, "Master, a group of people came outside with appointment orders, saying that they are the newly appointed magistrates of the county!"

County magistrate Hu thumped in his heart, and thought: "It's finally here!"

He knew that he couldn't escape. The emperor might not pay attention to him just after such a big incident happened, but there are always some people who don't mind helping the emperor to handle this matter.

He said to the yamen servant, "Okay, stop shouting, and go out with me to have a look."

County magistrate Hu was wearing a cotton padded jacket, which should be dark blue in color, but it was also patched, and the color was almost washed to light blue.

Leading the yamen servants out of the gate of the county yamen, magistrate Hu looked at a group of young people outside the door, cupped his hands and said, "It's the local county magistrate, can you let me take a look at the appointment order?"

Wang Meng was stunned for a moment when he saw a shriveled and thin old man, and then hurriedly handed over the appointment order in his hand.

He took another look at the shriveled and skinny old man, with several patches on his clothes, which looked exactly like this dilapidated county town.

County magistrate Hu carefully checked the appointment order and confirmed that it was indeed stamped with the seal of the Ministry of Officials, so he sent the appointment order back with both hands, "Please wait a moment, I will pack my things and hand them over to the county government."

"Wait!" Wang Meng called to stop Magistrate Hu.

"Magistrate Hu, don't you want to see your transfer order?"

Magistrate Hu was taken aback for a moment, he thought he had been dismissed from office, and thought about packing his luggage and going back to his hometown.

Wang Meng took another transfer order from someone else and handed it to County Magistrate Hu.

County magistrate Hu took a look, and when he saw that he was transferred to the well-known Fu County, tears filled his eyes.

"I have no virtue or ability, how can I take over this county?"

Wang Meng didn't know in his heart that he really helped Fucheng bring this paper transfer order.

In fact, the magistrate of Fucheng also knew that magistrate Hu was a good and honest official, but being a good and honest official did not mean that he had the ability to develop, and there was no way to develop a barren county into a rich one.

This time, the higher-ups used this impoverished county as the playing field, and no matter what, the county was about to rise.

Although County Magistrate Hu can't make a poor county rich, he is a rare honest official. If this honest official is placed in a rich county, he will definitely not be afraid of the common people.

This was also the magistrate's consideration. Before he reported the name of the poor county under his control, he didn't think there was any hope of being selected, but he was selected. Naturally, he had to consider how to place the county magistrate Hu.

Finally, after thinking about it, he decided to hand over the rule of the next wealthy county to County Magistrate Hu.

The reason why the transfer order was handed over to Wang Meng was because Wang Meng first visited the magistrate when he came over. The two came from the same academy, and they were their own people, so he asked him to bring the transfer order with him.

County magistrate Hu shook his hand, holding the transfer order.

I stayed in this county for nine years and achieved nothing. I didn't expect that the magistrate would value him so much and hand over such a good county to him.

He will definitely not fail the magistrate's entrustment to manage this rich county well.

When County Magistrate Hu left, he had nothing extra, only a patched package in his hand.

The news that magistrate Hu was going to leave quickly spread throughout the county, and many ragged villagers and elders greeted them, holding the only various land properties in their hands.

Some are self-grown vegetables, some are rough noodles, and these are already the best things in the hands of the common people.

County Magistrate Hu's eyes filled with tears, and he refused everyone's food.

An old man with a bowed waist came out from among the common people. It could be seen that this old man was very prestigious among the common people.

"Magistrate Hu, you are a good county magistrate. Since you have a good future, we will not keep you. We only hope that you will be rewarded for being a good person."

County Magistrate Hu wiped his eyes, and supported the old man with his own hands, "Mr. Hu, the new county magistrate is from the middle of Beijing, and he is more knowledgeable than Mr. Xiao. He will definitely lead the villagers out of the predicament." Looking at Wang Meng and others on the side of the road, "Magistrate Wang, these old folks will be handed over to you."

Wang Meng nodded solemnly, "Magistrate Hu, please rest assured, I will use all my efforts to lead everyone to live a good life."

County magistrate Hu glanced at all the people again, then turned his back, pulled a donkey, and walked towards the gate of the city with a package on his back.

After a while, people just watched his back like this.

Wang Meng looked at the group of people and said to the people around him, "No wonder the book says that people are the cutest people in this world. If you treat them well, they will naturally repay you with sincerity."

Anyone who wants to take the imperial examination must learn an indispensable book.

The book is called "The Loveliest Person".

Originally, Wang Meng was still a little confused, but when he saw this group of people who sincerely treated Hu County Magistrate, he immediately understood.

People are indeed the loveliest people.

Even if County Magistrate Hu did not help them, or even changed their circumstances, but did not raise taxes or distribute corvee indiscriminately, for the common people, this is a rare good official.

The requirements of these people are too low, they have already fallen into the dust.

Wang Meng couldn't help feeling a sense of pride in his heart. If he wanted to go to the officialdom before, then now he wants to do something for these lovely people, and he also wants to be a good official that is passed on by word of mouth among the people!
